Gregory Campbell has said “unionists will not be browbeaten into accepting claims that a border poll is inevitable” on the same day he told Irish President Catherine Connolly: “We’re not leaving the United Kingdom.”
The East Londonderry MP addressed a major debate at the Literary and Historical Society in University College Dublin this evening, where he made his case for Northern Ireland remaining an integral part of the UK.
